The USS Chewaucan
AOG-50, riding high and probably near empty. Fall of 1968, maybe near
Sardinia.(it's been a long
time!).

USS Notable
MSO-460. We escorted
5 MSO's back across the Atlantic
in early December, 1968.

USS Rival MSO-468,
being refueled at sea in
the middle of the Atlantic.

Just for comparison,
a look at a more modern LST. Built without the bow doors, but still
capable of offloading tanks and similar vehicles.But even these are
being mothballed now.

If you want to use
one of the full sized images on your ship's website, but need it in a smaller
physical size, please let me know and I will be happy to do the reducing
for you. I just want to keep the image quality high, and the photos
you are downloading have been compressed to a smaller file size to shorten
download time. I have high quality scans of each one that I can work
from. JS
